Grandparents Gravesite

I trying to locate my grandfathers and my gr grandfathers gravesites. My grandfather's name is Walter Cribbs and he is buried somewhere in Marion, Al. He died in 1942 or 43. My gr. grandfather's name is also Walter and I believe he maybe buried somewhere in Newburn, Al. He died probably in the early 1900's. He was married to Eliza Sanders or Sanderson. My grandfather was married to Vera Moore. I don't even nowhere to begin to look. I'm pretty sure, given the time period, they are buried in colored only cemeteries. Most of which have probably been forgotten and/or neglected. But I'd like to know where they are anyway. Any help you can provide, would be greatly appreciated. Tray
